Wolfgang Laib: A Scented Journey

Description

“The material is becoming immaterial - it's almost not a material any more. The scent is something that goes beyond that. But it's not only the scent... I think it is a search for the universal, for the timeless. This is why my works use natural materials and why my work is close to nature. But nature is only one possibility...”

- Wolfgang Laib

In this publication, Clare Farrow gives an insight into the processes behind Laib's beeswax installation at the Henry Moore Studio, Dean Clough (29 June - 23 October 1994), which then toured to Camden Arts Centre in London.
